Time once again to turn back the clock to 1976 and gaze once more
upon some iconic images from the pages of CAPTAIN BRITAIN, as
published by the Merry MARVEL U.K. Bullpen. Okay, the comic
was prepared in the States, but it was at least printed over here and had
some input from the British editorial team, even if it was minor.
Looking at the comic now, it has to be said that it was quite a slick
publication, considering that some of the other U.K. Marvel weeklies
often had a makeshift appearance to them. Apart from his origin per-
haps, there was really nothing original about the good Captain's tales,
which were fairly generic superhero fare, but Marvel has to be given
credit, at least, for trying to give us Brits a hero of our own.
Okay, peeps, don't forget to return for part four.
